Background / History

Teresa is Emperor Orsay's daughter and a princess of the Presia Empire, a harsh warrior nation where strength determines succession regardless of gender. As a child, she favored riding and fighting over courtly pursuits; by age eight, she could chase her brother Isli around a battlefield. She began challenging dungeons at nine and survived two before meeting Caroso. 46 476

Her mother was murdered by a deity's follower while Teresa watched. Diana, Teresa's sister, arrived too late to save her; Teresa asked Diana not to kill the attacker because she wanted revenge herself. The loss became a defining source of Teresa's drive for strength. 434

Teresa first met Caroso in a cultist dungeon, where she organized the surviving students into a disciplined force and recognized him as a fellow strong opponent. Their cooperation developed into a close friendship and a competitive rivalry. 46 47 68

After Caroso and Bai were believed dead in a dungeon, Teresa found Caroso's notebooks, plans, seals, and deployment orders. She disguised herself as Caroso and continued his mission, assuming responsibility for his forces and long-term strategy. 466 467

Emperor Orsay's death and the suffering she witnessed under Presia's tax system forced Teresa to confront her country's political failures. She chose to oppose Isli and became a source of inspiration for Presian students seeking constitutional reform. 476 484 485

Appearance

Teresa is a white-haired, purple-eyed swordswoman who carries herself like a veteran of countless battles. She commonly fights with a greatsword and favors practical training attire over noble refinement. 46 74

• Long white hair and purple eyes. 46
• Wields person-sized greatswords and trains with heavily weighted dust-steel weapons. 46 74
• Frequently wears minimal training clothing despite Presia's cold climate. 367
• Uses heavy armor and weapon sets when preparing for serious combat. 90 443

Personality

Teresa is blunt, restless, and openly contemptuous of empty ceremony. Although fully educated in etiquette, she usually refuses to perform it unless necessary, preferring direct action over political pleasantries. 65

A battle-seeker by nature, she treats dangerous dungeons and intense duels as exhilarating opportunities. She is ruthless when comrades are endangered, but her aggression is not mindless: she adapts quickly, values unified command, and can direct soldiers with discipline and restraint. 47 148 170

Her later experiences make her more empathetic toward civilians and low-ranking officials suffering under Presia's rule. This growing political awareness leads her to challenge her brother's government rather than merely pursue personal strength. 484 485

Abilities & Skills

Greatsword Combat

Teresa is an elite Warrior whose style emphasizes overwhelming force, momentum, and direct confrontation. Her physical potential is extraordinary: Strength S++, Agility S+, Stamina S+, Magic Power S-, and Mental Strength A+. 67

• Uses her whole body and the weight of her weapon to maximize each strike's force. 149
• Can match Caroso in direct sword combat and pressure higher-tier opponents through relentless offense. 67 91
• Favors head-on engagements, but is capable of detecting deception and exploiting an enemy's behavioral patterns. 79 83
• Can fight while heavily injured and continue protecting allies assigned to her care. 47

Power of Emotions

Teresa can draw out hidden potential through intense emotion. Her anger at Caroso's apparent death allowed her to overwhelm a Fifth-tier priest despite being only Third-tier at the time. 91

• Emotional surges can drastically increase her strength in life-or-death situations. 91 92
• Each use can expose potential that remains available after the immediate outburst. 92
• Cannot be reliably invoked during ordinary sparring. 92

Command and Battlefield Leadership

Teresa is an effective field commander who combines Presian military training with personal frontline leadership. She can organize mixed-class teams, issue clear tactical orders, and maintain morale under pressure. 49 170

• Uses Shield Warriors, Paladins, Priests, Druids, and Minion cards in coordinated formations. 49
• Leads from the front while adjusting routes and formations to avoid enemy firepower. 170
• Her Eighth-tier Law strengthens the attack and defense of troops following her, reflecting her military knowledge and commanding presence. 442
• Uses army-support cards such as Battle Cry, which greatly boosts injured allies' attributes and morale. 446

High-Tier Sword Arts

Following her Eighth-tier breakthrough, Teresa gains access to powerful Warrior techniques and begins applying combat Laws in battle. 436 446

• Mountain Shattering Earth Splitting Slash — A Golden Legendary eighth-star technique that releases Teresa's blood energy through a devastating ground strike. 446
• Extreme Sword Control Technique (Time-Space Slash) — A Golden Legendary eighth-star technique described as capable of severing time and space. 446
• Can use an Eighth-tier card deck when equipped with her six-sword set. 414

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Teresa's five-piece armor set — Breastplate, leg armor, armguards, pauldrons, and boots. The full set provides a dramatic combat boost, but consumes substantial magic power. 90
• Three-sword legendary set — Three legendary longswords that merge into a single greatsword; Teresa sacrifices defensive equipment to sustain it in prolonged combat. 148
• Six-sword set — A growing weapon set consisting of a main sword, three primary blades, and two secondary swords. When combined, it can approach Ninth-tier power. 414
• Dragon treasure set — Dragon Scale Armor, Dragon Scale Shield, Dragon Bone Greaves, Dragon Wing Cloak, Dragon Fang Necklace, Dragon Claw Crown, Dragon Eye Ring, and Flame Dragon Fire Tongue Sword. Its combined boost lets her overpower veteran Eighth-tier opponents. 443
• Muchen Bead — A Ninth-tier secret treasure of Presia which Teresa offers to lend Caroso during his recovery. 367

Relationships

• Caroso Kolia — Friend, rival, and frequent battlefield partner. Their relationship began as mutual recognition between strong warriors and grew through repeated duels, dungeon expeditions, and military cooperation. 46 68 149 170
• Emperor Orsay — Her father and the Emperor of Presia. Teresa initially interpreted his gentler treatment as a lack of faith in her, but his death deeply affects her. 476 507
• Isli — Teresa's second brother. She resolves to stop him after learning of Presia's worsening conditions under his rule. 230 485
• Diana — Teresa's sister, whose exceptional ability and reputation shaped Teresa's lifelong insecurity and competitive drive. 434
• Bai — Caroso's teacher and Teresa's ally during the Forbidden Land campaign. Teresa is relieved when Bai survives the Brave Warrior's Trial, though she later believes Bai died alongside Caroso. 433 466
• Ailin — Ally and fellow princess. After an initially tense meeting, they come to respect one another's strength and ideals. 373 374
